The ‘all-inclusive’ advertising, like people with nice tanning and sunglasses are resting at tropical beaches or about hotels, resorts, cruises and holidays on vacation spots packages instantly attracts people’s attention. The concept of all inclusive could be misleading even if we have come to believe that every cost is covered on such a vacation. Pay one fee, once and everything is covered from the airfare to the meals, activities, drinks and accommodation, this is what things used to be like. When this system was first launched back in the 50s, it mainly targeted single individuals, while at present, adjustments have been made to also include families.

At present, the all-inclusive coverage does not include sports tuition, excursions costs, very special spa treatments or courses. Such services are now charged separately, even if the package covers meals, airfare and accommodation. There are some drinks that the all inclusive vacation package does not pay for, as it is the case with very select wines, champagne and premium brands. Normally, when you pay for an all inclusive vacation with the travel agent, all the available services will be presented to you.

A few years ago an all inclusive vacation even covered baby sitting, but not anymore. The tough competition, the world financial crisis and the need to target customers have triggered major changes in this business. Even so, select services are always charged extra, even if the all inclusive vacation package may come with a wide range of facilities.

The offers also differ depending on the destination, because you will pay more money on a trip to Hawaii than on one to Mexico. And it is very convenient to travel like this, without having to pay money out of the pocket. Moreover, the average holiday maker has basic needs such as meals and accommodation, and families will not spend their entire budget on luxury services.

Discounts are also granted for larger groups of travelers, than it is the case with singles’ vacation packages. Take the time to compare the offer of several travel agencies in order to make a good choice. Remember that even for very convenient deals, it is of paramount importance to know what is included and what isn’t.
